Hive is still resistant while a whole lot of people keep taking advantage of it at the expense of all of us and ofc of the price (see DHF). Freedom of speech, in a way exists but it depends on the voting power. I can post about my life, about movies, games, travelling and if I have decent content (no like a sentence, for example) it will "pass". Meanwhile, if someones write something controversial, there is a chance of downvoting, so the more hp you have, the more you can help build a really free place or something that resembles a cage :p. It comes down to how people with power in here use it and based on Hive's price and the low activity we have, something doesn't feel right!

btw, it's been so long, how are you, man?
